api for postprocessing / troughprocessing g-code

define API where a custom external function (dll/so/python/php/perl/whatever) can be call after each layer is sliced by the s3d. s3d should send to the external function
- layer details (number, height, Z position, time to print)
- full g-code of that layer

and should expect back "modified g-code"

this way a simple function can be implemented that will add some code if for e.g. layer time to print is > xyz sec, or another g-code script will be implemented 3cm into print or ...
gcodestat integrates with Simplify3D and allow you to
Calculate print time accurately (acceleration, max speed, junction deviation all taken into consideration)
Embed M117 codes into G-Code
Upload your G-Code directly to Octoprint
open source and unlicence
